I've been feeling rather disconnected from fandom and livejournal lately and haven't been checking in or posting as regularly as I once used to. Blah! I'm sure it's partly due to hiatus and partly duw to my waning interest in Smallville. But I'm here now so...

I see your point. My gripe with badly written female characters is mostly about when it's obvious that the writer doesn't care about the character/she's very obviously a Mary Sue/She's only used her to further the arc of male characters.

The lack of female characters and the fandom's insane hatred of girls is why I could never get into Supernatural no matter how many times I was told that it was a really, really good show.

Skirt over jeans never acceptable unless you're Chloe Sullivan.

WORD!

I co-sign everything you said about Chloe. For me, Chloe > All. That goes for ships, theories, everything and I don't think I need to say just how much I still care about the character but just in case you're wondering, the answer is, a lot.

Even if Chloe gets an ending that I can never come to terms with, I think I will be able to blame meta raesons for her arc and continue to love what came before. Having said, I really, really want a happy ending for her. Like you, a move on her own terms to a place of her own choice to carry on saving the world in her own way.

I think the thing I hate about Bella is that she's given absolutely no lovable qualities, yet everyone ADORES her. I think the writer actually does care about her as she's kind of a self-insert and that's the worst part.
